Burning $1 bills was described as one participant as as way to symbolically reject the monetary economy that holds private profits and property above social welfare and community.\n<\/body><\/html>\n","contact":"darwin@riseup.net","link":"  http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/sbfreemarket","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","summary":"Santa Barbara's 3rd Really Really Free Market draws in the community to participate in an experimental alternative economy based on gift giving and mutual aid.","numcomment":2,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/2007\/07\/free_market_1.jpg","filesize":"183.7 kibibytes","article_url":"\/news\/2007\/07\/203629.php","image":{"original":"\/uploads\/2007\/07\/free_market_1.jpg","small":"\/uploads\/2007\/07\/free_market_1.jpgthumb.jpg","medium":"\/uploads\/2007\/07\/free_market_1.jpgmid.jpg"}},"attachments":[{"id":203630,"heading":"Money burning initiated by several well wishers","article":"","author":"Darwin","parent_id":203629,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","created":"2007-07-31 18:22:59","modified":"2007-07-31 18:22:59","fileurl":"\/usr\/local\/www-domains\/la.indymedia.org\/public\/uploads\/2007\/07\/free_market2.jpg","image":{"original":"\/usr\/local\/www-domains\/la.indymedia.org\/public\/uploads\/2007\/07\/free_market2.jpg"}},{"id":203631,"heading":"Why do we have pictures of slave owners on our money?","article":"","author":"Darwin","parent_id":203629,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","created":"2007-07-31 18:24:56","modified":"2007-07-31 18:24:56","fileurl":"\/usr\/local\/www-domains\/la.indymedia.org\/public\/uploads\/2007\/07\/free_market3.jpg","image":{"original":"\/usr\/local\/www-domains\/la.indymedia.org\/public\/uploads\/2007\/07\/free_market3.jpg"}},{"id":203632,"heading":"Video of the free market.","article":"A drummer set up for a while offering lessons and music while other musicians roamed the lawn.","author":"Darwin","parent_id":203629,"mime_type":"video\/quicktime","created":"2007-07-31 18:26:00","modified":"2007-07-31 18:26:00","fileurl":"\/usr\/local\/www-domains\/la.indymedia.org\/public\/uploads\/2007\/07\/freemarket.mov"}],"comments":[{"id":205495,"heading":"Left Overs: What to do with them???","article":"What do you do with all the stuff that was left over, that people didn't want?
